In need of a formula for days to complete task
I am needing a formula to calculate the number of days to complete a task in a project. Also I need the average for that date divided by the number of employees.
Please help !!!!

There's a few ways you probably could do it:
=[due date]@row - today()
That will give you how many days are left until the due date hits.
As for the average number of employees for the date, would something like this work?
=count(employees) / (days until due date)
Without seeing your sheet, that's probably a very generic way to get to the answers your looking for. If you do have a screenshot of your sheet, that might help get some more specifics. Hope it helps!
